Josh Khachadourian | Jesus Set The Standard
Send us a text Our culture has lots to say about the topics of leadership and what standard men should follow these days. This has caused far too many men to struggle with ideas of leadership, masculinity, and falling into the trap of being the lone wolf. My guest today is Josh Khachadourian. Josh is a husband, father, leader, coach and host of the 'Raising The Standard' podcast. Josh has spent the last 20 years ascending the corporate ladder in a Fortune 100 company where he focused on building high performing teams and developing best in class leaders. He has encountered and observed the pressures today's men are facing. Most men are grappling for identity and struggling through challenges in life without a plan. Jesus provides a plan and sets a standard that is relatively unknown to the modern Christian man. His mission is to show men everywhere that Jesus is accessible, relatable, real and relevant. And his book ‘The Standard’ has been challenging, changing and calling men to raise the standard in their lives. You can connect with Josh, read his blog, listen to his podcast, and more at standard59.com We have a great conversation today on leadership, on Jesus as the standard, and lots more…. www.standard59.com www.kingdomdrivenbook.com www.significantman.com Questions Answered: All men are created to be leaders, but not all men lead. As we start, can you unpack that for us? From your perspective, what does servant leadership mean to you? What are your thoughts on today’s culture and ideas of masculinity? Where do you go to get your answers on what masculinity is? What do you think about what Jesus did before starting his ministry? What is the impact on men of them trying to go through life as a lone wolf? How do men measure themselves against other men? How did Jesus set the standard for men? What are your favorite questions to ask men? How did you get involved in this kind of work? What has the value been for you of having other strong men in your life? How do you facilitate growth within your own family? How can a man start creating change where he is right now?

Theo Zhuang | Men Doing Life Together
Send us a text One of the most important things for a man is to not do life in isolation. It’s critical to have other men who will have your back, men you can do life together with. From celebrating the high points to supporting during the low points, this life was not meant to be lived alone. My guest today is Theo Zhuang. Times were tough for him as a child, growing up in Venezuela from the age of 3 to 10 as his parents were missionaries, which was a difficult environment for a boy. And growing up as a pastor’s kid didn’t help him during those years, but began his discovery of his own identity, life purpose, and calling. God brough him through various life experiences, from volunteering, to disaster relief, and in each he had an opportunity to take a giant leap of faith. Learning about himself from the inside out, he realized that he was created with unique gifts that made working as a transformational coach and leading the Noble Father community extremely fulfilling.

Send us a text In today’s world so many men are working through the ideas of masculinity, toxic masculinity, and calling. So what does healthy masculinity look like? What does a man’s calling look like? How does a man discover his calling? My guests today, Rory and Matt, have great insight into these issues and lots more in a fun and important conversation. Rory Lawrence is the founder of The Dangerous Man Podcast. Husband to Jenni, father to three children, brother to seven siblings, and a Pastor to Legacy Church. He holds a deep desire to help all men discover their true masculine and dangerous selves. Rory has conquered hell on earth many times, overcoming some of life’s most difficult battles and he continues to turn that pain into purpose. Masculinity is a pursuit he believes brings revelation to a mans heart of who he is, from the God who designed it. When real biblical masculinity is embraced it deepens a mans understanding and ability to live out the unique calling on his life as a dangerous man. Matt Fortin is co-founder of The Dangerous Man Podcast. He is a loving husband to his wife Becca and he became motivated to inspire men to be the best version of themselves after being surrounded by great examples of men all throughout his life.

David is the founder of Rough Cut Men Ministries, which is primarily a live, interactive men’s experience using a strategic combination of action movie sequences, real world current events, Biblical truth and fireteam-sized discussion times with a single, laser focused objective: To get men talking about what’s really going on in their lives. David travels around the country, and the world, using the Rough Cut Men Movie Experience to get men to be transparent with one another and with Jesus. https://RoughCutMen.org https://SignificantMan.com

The Strength to Lead
Send us a text We live in challenging times. Turn on the news or check the newsfeed and it seems like there is story after story of chaos, of war, and of disease and death. Then there are the stories of political unrest and economic unrest. Inflation is out of control. The future is so uncertain. It can seem like there is darkness everywhere you look. And then, bringing it in closer to home, for far too many men their homes are not the peaceful oasis they have hoped for. Inside the house there is fighting, there is anger, there is sadness, and there is confusion. It can certainly make things seem impossible to navigate. How is a man supposed to lead his family through all this? How are you supposed to do that in such a world? Where do you get the strength to do this?

All About The Fellowship
Send us a text I’m joined today by Mike Grimes as he shares his thoughts and experience of being part of the Significant Man Fellowship. We talk about how he has benefited from the group, changes his wife and kids have seen in him, the cost of being in such a group, and lots more. It’s one thing to hear about a group from the person running the group – it’s another thing entirely to hear from one of the members. Questions Answered: What is the Significant Man Fellowship? How have you benefitted from being in the group? Has your wife, and your kids, seen changes in you? Since there is a cost, how do you decide it if is worth it to be part of the group? Why should other guys join the Fellowship? The Significant Man Fellowship is an exclusive group for Christian men. Our goal is to support and encourage one another, without any judgment, to have the best in mind of the other members, to learn together, and to work on becoming the men that God created us to be.

Travis Uptegrove | The Power of Brotherhood
Send us a text Christian Brotherhood impacts every area of a man’s life. And too many men are trying to go through life as the lone wolf, figuring out things by themselves. But men were not created to walk through life alone. We need friends by our side, we need friends to hold us accountable, we need friends who will walk the walk with us. Having great friends, having a brotherhood you can count on helps you, it helps your sons and daughters, it helps your wife, it helps all around you as you are changed into the man God created you to be. In this episode, my guest answers lots of questions about friendship and Christian Brotherhood, so let’s get started. --- Travis Uptegrove has been married for 22 years to his wife, Kristina, and they have four boys, ages 19, 16, 12, and 8.

The goal of Element 26 is to build a community of men who are striving to have a stronger walk with God, and in the process becoming better husbands, fathers, and men for Christ.

Brian Phillips | Biblical Masculinity in Modern Culture
Send us a text In our modern culture it seems like biblical masculinity is an afterthought, or worse, something to be lined up against. But what is Biblical Masculinity, and how is it relevant in our current era? Today’s episode digs into these questions along with thoughts on issues like honor, a man leading in his home, and how values guide our work. My guest is Brian Phillips, founder of The Grove Fellowship and Grace Ops where he works as a strategic visionary leader within these organizations. Brian believes discipline, zeal and devotion are necessary to succeed in the work you are called to accomplish in life. He has reached thousands of men with the gospel and calls them to live an authentic life of conviction and character. Brian lives in Northern Illinois with his wife of 24 years, their four children, and one grandchild. He loves fitness, bonfires and spending time with friends and family. You can learn more at graceops.net Questions answered on this episode: What does it mean to help men discover and define biblical masculinity? How can a man be tender and tough at the same time? Is our modern culture against biblical masculinity? How are you seeing the cultural issue play out in your work? How do you help guys who have the lone wolf mindset? What does it mean for a man to honor God with his lifestyle? How should a man get started reading the Bible? Why is it important to read the Bible with other people? How does honoring God change a man within his home? What does it mean to have a parent centered house? What is the importance of meals together as a family? Why are the values that guide your work important? How does the freedom in Christ differ from how the world views freedom?

How does knowing the Bible help me as a Christian and judgment? How do you answer the charge of, well who are you to judge? What is the connection between judgment and forgiveness?

Send us a text The Bible is the most translated, most read, and most well-known book in the history of mankind. But many people are intimidated by the Bible, and don’t know what the book is about or how it is structured, or how it can all be tied into one story. In this episode my guest shares his thoughts on the Bible, provides great insight into some of the key questions about the Bible, and how this incredible book applies to our lives. My guest today is Mike Teramano. Mike is originally from Cleveland, Ohio and moved to Clemson, South Carolina for school and has lived there ever since. He and his wife Terri have been married for 15 years with two children. Mike & Terri serve in their local church with a focus on discipleship - they are passionate about increasing their own and others' biblical IQ. They teach classes, connect new members with ministries in the church, host marriage workshops, and help run church operations. Mike is a Detective with a local police department having served over 15 years in law enforcement while Terri is a Nurse and Nurse Educator having practiced and taught for over 12 years. They enjoy sushi, they try to hike whenever life allows it, and will throw down on game night if challenged! Questions Answered: What is the Bible? How does someone get started with the Bible? What is the Hebrew Bible? How is the New Testament structured? How can all these different pieces of writing be one story? What are your thoughts on new perspectives when reading the same passage over and over? I have other people to tell me what the Bible means, so why should I read it myself? Is the Bible simply a life application tool? How are the Scriptures like a mirror? How does the Old Testament matter to a Christian? What are the ways that Christianity has influenced our culture? Why does it matter that we know who the books of the Bible were originally written to? What should pastors keep in mind when teaching the Bible?

Five Minute Friday | What's Wrong With He Gets Us?
Send us a text As you may have heard there was an ad during the Super Bowl from He Gets Us. They have been running ads for a while now about how Jesus understands us, about how Jesus can relate to what we’re going through, and about how He Gets Us. And lots of people seem to be quite upset. Some are mad at the amount of money spent, it’s a campaign that will spend over $100M dollars. Some are annoyed at how the commercials have been put together. Some challenge the messages of the ads. Some have different problems entirely. But others have praised this marketing campaign. So what’s the deal? Is this a horrible move, is it a waste of money, is it making fascism look benign, as Representative Ocasio-Cortez stated? Or is it great work? That’s the topic today, so let’s get started.

Five Minute Friday | Straight Out of Context - Philippians 4:13
Send us a text Taking verses out of context, in the Bible, is a big problem. People will read their own interpretation, they’ll look for a verse to say what they want it to say instead of reading it in the context of what it’s actually saying. Today we’re going to talk about Philippians 4:13 and how people take that one out of context, so let’s get started.

Brian Schulenburg | Business As Mission
Send us a text In our modern world, many men struggle with what may feel like a conflict between their careers and their faith walk. Men struggle with earning an income, sometimes even guilty about earning and income. So are men supposed to go to work and earn an income for our families, or leave the workplace and go be missionaries? The way we think about these issues, about money, about career, about the workplace, and about our calling is critical. My guest today, Brian Schulenburg, has been a pastor for several decades, and he is also a business owner in the world or real estate. He brings great experience to this conversation, so let’s get started. Brian has served as Wooddale’s discipleship pastor since 2018. This is his second stint at Wooddale, having served as our senior high pastor from 2001-2008. He spent a decade as the senior pastor of Woodbury Community Church. Brian has a heart for seeing people become followers of Jesus. From the time God captured his heart as a child, Brian has been introducing people to Jesus. He loves walking alongside others as they discover who God made them to be. He has served as a police chaplain with the Eden Prairie Police Department. In addition to his work as a pastor, Brian is a 3rd generation realtor, who has helped people buying and selling real estate all over the Twin Cities. Married for over 30 years to his wife Cyndi, the Schulenburgs are parents to four adult children. They are also grandparents. Brian is a graduate of Liberty University and Liberty Baptist Theological Seminary. Brian loves being on the water of a Minnesota lake, fishing, playing disc golf, geocaching, board games, superhero movies, comic books, baseball and basketball. You’ll also find him stocking books in the little free library in front of his home. Questions Answered: What does “Business as Mission” mean? Is there a separation between our professional calling and our Christian calling? How do I determine when to go deeper in a conversation? For a man in a rough job, how does he not absorb that and live as light in the darkness? Is there a conflict between earning money and serving him? Guilt of being wealthy? What are your thoughts on the story of the rich young ruler in the Bible? How do I share the gospel if I don’t have a theology degree? What if I say the wrong thing when sharing the gospel? Do I have a responsibility to share the gospel in my life, or is that just for pastors? Should men quit their businesses and go become missionaries? What if a man knows his calling is not his job, what does he do? Why is it important to be authentically me in my workplace? Important Links: THE FELLOWSHIP BROTHERHOOD An exclusive community of li

I hope you’ll be able to hear through that and hear this with the love that is intended. Being a father is one of the most important jobs we will ever have, and sometimes we need to step back and analyze our own performance, what we need to get better at, what we need to keep doing, and what we need to stop doing. One of those things to analyze is the amount of pressure we are putting on our kids, and that’s the topic today so let’s get started.

A Christmas War Story | Christmas 2022
Send us a text When you think of Christmas, odds are that you’ll have the typical thoughts and images come to mind. Christmas trees, gifts, wrapping paper, classic movies (including Die Hard), lights, ornaments, decorations, and all of that. And when you think of Christmas from a Christian viewpoint, odds are that you’ll have the typical thoughts and images there as well. Jesus, God, the manger, angels, Mary and Joseph, Christmas carols, and all of that. What you probably don’t think of, when it comes to Christmas, at least not at first, is violence, chaos, and war. But that is ultimately an important aspect of what the Christmas story is. Christmas is a part of a long and violent war story. It is THE war story to end all war stories. It's not the normal Christmas message, so let's get started.

Five Minute Friday | Why Was Jesus Born?
Send us a text Around the world there are millions, perhaps billions, of people who celebrate Christmas without actually knowing who Jesus was or why he was born. His birth changed the course of human history, even for those who do not believe in him. His birth changed the future of mankind, even for those who have never heard his name. During the Christmas season many will have a simple acknowledgment of Jesus, others may even say the phrase “Jesus is the reason for the season”, but they do so without really knowing why he came to Earth. With our hindsight, we know that Jesus was born, lived 33 years, and died in the Spring during Passover. But why was he born in the first place? Why was it his destiny to enter this sin-filled, sick, and hurting world at all? In today's episode, I tackle this giant question, so let's get started.

Five Minute Friday | What Dominates Your Thoughts?
Send us a text What are the things that dominate your thoughts? Do you get anxious? Distracted? Worry? In today’s episode I tackle these questions, so let’s get started. Too often I find myself distracted from things, not fully paying attention. It’s so easy to have a second screen open, to glance at another device, to be half-listening to someone who is talking. Even when I’m in church, and taking notes during the sermon, too often I have to keep re-focusing my attention on the pastor. I get distracted easily, and it’s one reason I’m so serious about going offline every weekend. Part of what leads me to distraction is thinking about what I have to get done next, or what project is currently not finished, or what I’ve not even started yet. And when those thoughts start to add up, I move from just being distracted to starting to feel anxious. Anxious about the bank account. Anxious about doing my job. Anxious about leading this ministry and the future of where we are headed. Anxious about all the things I “have to do”. Maybe you feel this as well. When we are in that feeling of being anxious, it is nearly the opposite of the feeling we experience when we are content, when we’re at peace, and when we’re filled with gratitude. ---- Important Links: THE BASECAMP EXPERIENCE A Four day and three night life-changing experience and training for married Christian fathers in the glorious mountains of Colorado.

How to Develop a Positive Attitude | Thanksgiving 2022
Send us a text When it comes to Thanksgiving, there are some pretty standard themes that get talked about. And they’re all good themes, like Be thankful, or how to practice gratitude, or appreciate being blessed, and so on. Nothing wrong with those ideas, but I want to talk with you today from a different perspective. I want to talk with you about your attitude. There are very few things that have a bigger impact on the quality of your life and on your daily interaction with others than your own attitude. There’s not much that will change the way you view yourself, others, and the world than your attitude. And this applies to both your positive attitude and your negative attitude. With the news we get hit with every day it’s seeming easier and easier to end up critical of others and looking for the negative aspects or our daily encounters. So we need to be careful here. All right, so let’s dig in.

Five Minute Friday | The Lone Wolf Dies
Send us a text I’ve been helping men and working with men for a long time now, from informally helping out guys way back in the 80s (as in the 1900s), through leading live men’s events with Significant Man Ministries today. It is my calling and my passion, and to see the changes in men, and the resulting changes in their marriages and families is humbling. And one of the things I have learned about Christian men is that we tend to fall for one of the big lies of the enemy. And that lie is that we think we have to do everything by ourselves. We think we are the only ones who could ever understand our problems, and we think we are the only one who has ever had our problems. We think we cannot count on anyone else. We think we have to figure out the solution by ourselves. And sometimes, if we’re being honest, we like to play this part. We like to be the lone wolf who just gets things done, without anyone else. We like to step back and say, look at what I accomplished. Look at me, I have it all figured out, I am the one who did all of this. And see, I didn’t need anyone else. But, here is the tough part. Eventually, the lone wolf dies.

Five Minute Friday | The Dangers of False Teaching
Send us a text In our culture, there is something dangerous, but we don’t often see it as such. It is something that can slowly, one small step at a time, take us down a path that leads us away from Jesus, even if it happens under the disguise of following him. And that something is the dangerous message of false teaching. False teachers are not new, men and women who wish to twist and use scriptures as they desire have been around for as long as there has been scripture to misuse. In second Peter 2, he starts with this, “But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you.” So this is not a new problem. But in our online world, in our soundbite world, where so many seek out messages that fit in a meme, in my opinion this problem is getting worse, not better. In today’s episode I’m going to dig into this idea of false teaching and why it’s so dangerous, so let’s get started. . . . Important Links: .

Five Minute Friday | A New Perspective on Purpose
Send us a text In today’s episode I’m going to discuss a critical shift that has to be made in the conversation about your purpose, as a Christian man. There is a new perspective that may be required here, and it is a foundational principle of how we, as Christian men, can view our purpose and calling. This new perspective is found in the comparison of and contrasting between a purpose that is of this world, and a purpose that is not of this world. There is a conflict between these two purposes, and it is within this conflict that many men find themselves trapped and feeling insignificant in their purpose. . .

Five Minute Friday | Can You Be Good Enough To Get Into Heaven?
Send us a text Around the world and in religions from all over, many people are taught that if they just do enough good here on earth, they will experience paradise in the after life. They think that being good is enough to get into heaven, so to speak. But, this view is not what the Bible teaches, and it raises a whole lot of questions. To start with, how is a good person defined? Who gets to create that definition? Do you? Do I? What if we have different definitions of doing good? Is a good person someone who hasn’t committed any serious crimes throughout their life? Or maybe a good person is someone who has dedicated their lives to ministry or to working at a homeless shelter once a week? Or maybe it’s working there every day? And then, just how many good deeds is enough? Do I have do something good once a week, once a day, how much exactly will count up as good enough. If 51 percent of my actions are what I think are good, is that going to be enough? Can the other 49 percent be not so good?

Five Minute Friday | A Problem With Pastors
Send us a text Today’s episode might be a bit strong for some. There is a dangerous trend, especially here in American churches, with the messages some pastors are teaching, and we all need to be vigilant and aware of this. It’s not the most fun topic to discuss, and sometimes people get upset at calling things out like this, but second Peter warns of these dangers. So what is it that I’m talking about today? What is a problem with pastors? Let’s get into it. It is becoming all too common to find a big church led by a charismatic pastor who is a great speaker. He uses pauses well, he raises and lowers his voice on cue, he cries on demand… he puts on a really great show. It is emotional, it is strong, it is positive, it is encouraging. But, what is frequently missing is the actual Bible, the actual foundation of scripture seems to be an afterthought, if any thought, in that kind of environment.

That stuff is great, but it’s not the ending and there is a challenge with normal personal development. Listen in today to hear what’s wrong with personal development and to hear what the challenge is with personal development.

Five Minute Friday | Faith and Science
Send us a text In today’s world, at first glance, it seems like science and faith are opposites, that they have nothing to do with one another and that they are about as far apart as anything could be. But, is that true? Is it true that Christianity and science are opposites? Is it correct to think that they have nothing to do with one another?

Five Minute Friday | Fathers Matter
Send us a text We are living in a culture that is creating, and even – at times – happy about having, a fatherless society. You’ve heard the lines: Men are optional. A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle. Or that with medical advances, men won’t even be needed to create life. And on and on… But the reality is that despite the current push of society, despite men often being told they are an accessory and not really that important anymore, the stats are overwhelming. In today’s episode, I get into the fact that yes, Fathers Matter, and just how important it is to become the father God created you to be.

Five Minute Friday | Embrace The Race
Send us a text A while ago there was a story in the news of a runner, a man who was entered into a marathon and he ended up crossing the line in third place. But the story quickly changed when witnesses reported seeing the man get on a bus, during the race, and ride it to near the finish line. He then got off the bus and hid behind a tree, only to start running again after two other men had passed in front him. He didn’t want to be in first place, that would too obvious. And although he crossed the line in third place, it didn’t last long. His trick was found out, and he was stripped of his medal. This was a man who did not embrace the race. It’s tempting for us to want to jump ahead to the finish line, to skip the miles in between starting and completing the race, but those miles in between are critical. Those miles in between are where the learning happens, that’s where our growth takes place. And God knows it. In Hebrews 12:1 we read, “let us strip off every weight that slows us down, especially the sin that so easily trips us up. And let us run with endurance the race God has set before us.” As Christians, as men who have been around the sun a few times, this isn’t our first time around the track. Now some of us are farther along than others, and some of you are just getting started. But we are all in the race together. And as we’re running this race, we need to get rid of the weight that is slowing us down.

Send us a text Why is it that so many men avoid church? Why are so many churches filled with women and men who have reluctantly been dragged along?

Five Minute Friday | A Courageous Man
Send us a text Have courage men, have courage. Lines like that tend to create deep emotional responses in men. We love courage. We love the ideas that come into our minds when we think of courage. But, why is that? How could a few simple words end up meaning so much? Let’s start first with trying to understand what courage is to begin with. When you think about courage, what do you think of? What images or visions come to mind? Normally, men think of a soldier in battle, doing something heroic and dangerous. Men think of an act of bravery that could result in the loss of life or limb. Men think of David defeating Goliath. Men think of a man, out in the woods, fighting a wolf alone with his bare hands. Men think of great men doing great things. Doing. Taking action. But if I'm not hanging off a helicopter or running into a burning building, how can I be a courageous man? Listen to today's show for what might be a different take on this important question.

Five Minute Friday | Straight Out of Context - Jeremiah 29:11
Send us a text When we first look at Jeremiah 29:11 it seems so simple and straightforward. And, it seems so very encouraging, hopeful, and optimistic. It is one of those verses that lives on wall plaques, printed on shirts, and painted onto coffee mugs. But, is it possible this famous verse is taken out of context? As a reminder, here is Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the plans I have for you,” says the LORD. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.” With this verse, all translations are very similar, so there is nothing to dig into in how this verse is translated. So, what’s the cliché, what’s the deal with this verse being taken out of context? Well, for that, as is usually the case, we need to expand our reading and knowing to the verses and chapters that are surrounding this verse.

Five Minute Friday | Was Jesus a Socialist?
Send us a text It only takes a few minutes of being online and looking at posts that combine politics and Christianity to find people making the argument that Jesus was a socialist. And since I talk about politics online and while I certainly share my faith online, I took these conversations seriously, and wondered about the question, was Jesus a socialist? Did he practice socialism or encourage socialism for his followers? Back in June of 1992, it was reported in London’s Daily Telegraph that former Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev had said, “Jesus was the first socialist…” so this statement and the question has been around for quite some time now. In today’s podcast, I share my thoughts on this question and share my answer. Let’s get started!

Five Minute Friday | The Power of Wives
Send us a text This is a fun one today. Something that some men are aware of in their subconscious, but almost never think about, is the truly incredible and powerful impact their wives have on them. You see, with her by your side, with her in your life, everything is possible. With her in your life, you can (and will) go out and conquer the world, you will build and you will provide her and your family amazing things. With her in your life, you will walk over burning shards of glass and broken nails to protect her. But on the other hand however, without her by your side, without her in your corner, without her belief in you, feels like there is nothing worth doing. If she is not there, supporting, encouraging, and going through life with you, why bother? Now this might be a new idea, so let me expand on this some. Men do want to build, they want to create, they want to provide. But, who exactly are they building, creating, and providing for? As men, as husbands, If we’re being totally honest, we know that it isn't really for ourselves all that often. We’re doing all that for her, our families, and the future we’re going to enjoy together.

Five Minute Friday | A Christian Memorial Day
Send us a text Is Memorial Day really about mattress sales, a day off work, and BBQ? Or, is there something more that we should remember? Make sure that you stop and think about what this day is truly about. Young men and women, for generations, were asked to be willing to give up their lives so that we can live free. And for generations, young men and women have answered that call. In the wars and military actions that have been fought over those generations, the sacrifices that too many of those men and those women have paid can never be fully comprehended by us and never can be repaid by us. We may intellectually understand, but we can never fully do so. We can never fully understand what they have sacrificed, because of their dedication and love for this nation, and because of their love for the freedoms we often take for granted daily. There is no option for us to understand and repay that sacrifice. A verse that comes to mind, when thinking of our soldiers and Memorial Day is John 15:12-14, “This is my commandment: Love each other in the same way I have loved you. There is no greater love than to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. You are my friends if you do what I command.” Important Links: THE FELLOWSHIP BROTHERHOOD An exclusive community of like-minded Christian men, who meet each week to learn, laugh, hold each other accountable, and walk through life together.

And sometimes a mistaken idea of what this unity looks like can lead a couple down a dangerous path. A strong marriage, a healthy marriage, has unity at the center. And a strong marriage has both husband and wife continuing their separate identities and purposes. These two statements might seem like they are at odds with one another, however there is an important distinction that needs to be made...

That leak draft seems to have been confirmed, but right now, there is no official decision. OK, so on my social media feed, I shared a simple sentiment, which was that All human life is precious, and all human life is sacred. From the youngest to the oldest. All human life is sacred. In this episode I expand on that post and share my thoughts on whether or not every human life is sacred. It’s not an easy topic to work through, but an important one to discuss.

Five Minute Friday | Why Does Marriage Matter?
Send us a text Why does marriage matter these days? And what makes a marriage strong? When guys tell me why they are not getting married, they will often say, “it’s just a piece of paper.” Or they will tell me that it is just a formality. Or they will come up with something similar. But, marriage is so much more than that; it’s a sanctified relationship. To start with, we need to recognize that it is God who came up with the idea of marriage, and all that God has created is good. This means marriage is His idea and therefore it’s a good idea. That’s one of the starting points as we go through this idea. Marriage is not just a piece of paper, it’s not a formality, it’s an amazing gift God has given us. And what do we need to make this gift of marriage work? Is it enough to have two people who stand before God and in front of their friends and family and proclaim their love for each other? Is love really all you need? While our culture might say yes, history and experience will say no. Love is a great foundation, it’s a great cornerstone, but it isn’t enough, love is not all you need. If love isn’t all you need, then the obvious question is what do you need? What is needed to make a marriage strong? Thankfully, we have the answer to this question. It’s found in scripture. There are times we would rather just go through the latest and greatest how-to marriage book, but the truth is that in the scripture, in the gospel, in what Jesus taught we find what’s needed to make marriage strong. ...

I know far too many people who share with me, in private messages, that they want to speak up more, they want to share the good news more, but they are worried about losing their jobs, having people in their towns stop speaking with them, and about being cancelled online. The reality is that we are living in a culture that seems directly opposed to the truth of Jesus. In many instances, simply mentioning his name today will often bring out a negative, vile, nasty, and outright evil response. Through my Significant Man page on Facebook, I’ve received my share of those messages. The opposition is very real. But, the opposition is not new. Paul ran into this opposition plenty when he was out sharing the good news of Jesus. We read some about this in the book of Acts. In Chapter 17 there is a section about Paul teaching in Thessalonica, when troublemakers were gathered to form a mob and start a riot, looking to drag Paul (and Silas who was with him) out into the crowd. Later in Acts, Paul and Silas are preaching in Berea, where they are met with opposition again, and it was so serious they had to flee for their own safety. Then in Acts is yet another example, this time in Ephesus, of the crowd being filled with anger against Paul. The opposition is not new. A hostile culture is not new. From the earliest moments that Jesus began teaching, there was opposition. From the earliest moments that his disciples began teaching, there was opposition. But knowing that there is this hostility, knowing that there is this opposition is just one part of the equation. The Bible teaches us that we are going to have trouble, that we are going to have challenges, struggles, and opposition, so we know this. And even though it can feel like it, we know it’s not new. So what do we do with this knowledge? It’s one thing to know that anger is coming, to know that conflict is coming, but something has to happen with that insight. So what is that “something”?

Five Minute Friday | Hope Lives
Send us a text When Jesus died on the cross, people were filled with confusion, fear, and despair. His disciples were afraid for their own lives, and they went into hiding. Jesus had told them he would die, but they did not believe him. After all, he was their king, the one who would change everything, and now he was dead. So now what were they to do? For three years, they had walked by his side, following him, witnessing miracles, seeing countless lives changed, seeing things they had difficulty even understanding. But now? He was gone. They were without purpose and without hope. But, what happened next? ------ Check out more episodes of the show: https://significantman.com/podcast/

Five Minute Friday | Christian Doubt and Myths
Send us a text Doubt is an interesting conversation around Christians. Some openly embrace and encourage times of doubt and questioning. While others openly are against and discourage such times. For many Christians, the truth is that we have doubt from time to time, whether we want to admit it or not. The reality is that we have questions. We wonder. We think about alternatives. And sometimes we aren’t sure of things in our Christianity. Thankfully we have a faith that allows for those questions, and we can see, going back to the original disciples, that asking questions is part of the faith itself. The men who walked side-by-side with Jesus had questions, they had things that they did not understand, they had times when they doubted. It’s important that we follow the example Jesus and the Bible sets regarding doubt. He answered and taught them the right way forward.

Five Minute Friday | Do Not Steal What, Exactly?
Send us a text Do Not Steal What Exactly? Most of us know the Commandment, “Do Not Steal”, even non-Christians have heard it, but many may not have taken into consideration the full meaning of this incredibly powerful commandment. It’s easy to look at the others and make a quick comparison. After all, I know for sure that I have never murdered someone, so I get to have the positive ego check of telling myself I’m doing well. But, what exactly does do not steal encompass? Well, it encompasses an awful lot more than many might realize at first glance. And there is a reason it covers so much more than we might think. When we look at this verse, it is one of the short ones, simple Do not steal, or you shall not steal. Notice what’s missing. In Exodus, where the ten commandments are written, there isn’t a list of what you cannot steal. There isn’t even a hint of what you are forbidden from stealing. And that means only one thing. You cannot steal anything that belongs to, or is part of, another person. Our first thought is always to jump to material goods, to not stealing the stuff, the possessions, of someone else. And yes, that is absolutely covered here. You are not to steal the property of someone else. From their land, to their livestock, to their house, to anything in the house, and anything else they own; if it is their private property, you cannot steal it. That seems pretty cut and dry. However, the commandment does not stop with material goods, and that’s where we need to really think about this one. Like I said earlier, it’s easy to say I’ve never broken the commandment about murder, but maybe I have to understand this commandment on a deeper level before I confidently say I’ve never broken this one as well. Do not steal is, in fact, so all-encompassing that some commentators say it could be a summary of all the commandments on the second tablet. So what exactly are we not allowed to steal?

Five Minute Friday | Politically Incorrect Jesus
Send us a text Jesus. His name alone raises intense emotions. His name alone causes people to react. There is no other name like his, in all of human history. And in our modern history, people love to assign Jesus to a current political party or to a current political position. In posts, articles, and videos I’ll see people sharing how they are positive that if Jesus was walking beside them today, that He would vote for person X or party Y. Of course, it just happens to be a coincidence that people also put themselves in the group that would vote for person X or party Y. It never seems to be the case that people think Jesus would vote differently from themselves. In my work, I’m open with what I believe. I don’t hide it. I am a Christian man. I am an imperfect man who makes mistakes all the time. I believe that I need forgiveness for my sins. I believe in Jesus Christ, the son of God, who died, was buried, and rose from the grave three days later. I believe in Him. He is my lord and my savior. I believe in the Bible. I believe in the clear right and wrong that Jesus taught. And today, many of those things are considered inappropriate to state. Especially when it comes to the clear right and wrong that Jesus taught. Today we live in a world of the idea where there is no singular truth, and that everyone can have their own truth. We live in a world where the idea of clear right and wrong is frowned upon. We live in a world where you either agree with the popular view, or you are to be quiet. We live in a world where you either go along with the politically correct view, or you keep things to yourselves. Disagreement is not allowed. And if you disagree with the wrong thing, you can be ostracized, or even lose your friends, your family, and your career. One thing Jesus never was, was quiet about issues. Jesus was frustrated with the Zealots, the Pharisees, the Sadducees, and others – and I think he would be frustrated today as well. Jesus did not worry about offending people. Jesus did not worry about disagreeing with people. Even those in power, those who were popular, or those who had influence over others, at the time. He spoke the truth. The absolute, black and white truth.

Five Minute Friday | The Prosperity Gospel Is Dangerous
Send us a text The Prosperity Gospel sounds so good, it sounds so appealing, and that’s one reason it pulls in so many people (it pulled me in for a few years myself – I was all-in on this). But the prosperity gospel is not just false, it’s dangerous. And in this Five Minute Friday I’m going to break down why I hold that position. Now, it is not that the word prosper, or the idea of prosperity, or the idea of blessing, it’s not that they’re not in the Bible, clearly those words and ideas are. Rather, it is in how people in Western culture (and in some mega churches where this is preached) have decided to interpret those words and verses. And the way we interpret this makes a world of difference...

Five Minute Friday | The Measure of a Man
Send us a text The questions that haunt many men may sound simple, but to those of us who are seeking more out of life we know these are anything but simple questions. Are we really men? Are we doing what men are supposed to be doing? Are we living the lives God created us to live? And, how do we measure ourselves as men? Now often the answers come down to our stuff; so we measure ourselves by the cars we drive, the homes we live in, the vacations we take, and the toys we buy for our family, our friends, and ourselves. This is an easy way for us to measure ourselves, because each of these things, all this stuff, is very easy to see and identify. We can visually see the difference between a Ferrari and a Ford. We can visually see the difference between a mansion and a shack. All men can see these differences, and this makes for an easy and quick way to measure success. However, measuring ourselves by our things leaves a hollow feeling inside, and never really answers those haunting questions we have deep down inside. Measuring by things simply confuses the situation. Which then raises an obvious follow–up question; since that is so hollow, and since the stuff never really works and leaves men empty inside, how should a man measure himself? How do you measure your success as a man?

Five Minute Friday | How To Get Into Heaven
Send us a text How and why should you pass through the pearly gates? Death is inevitable. Despite some protest against this reality, we all know it to be true. One day, we are all going to die. We are all going to facing that moment of truth. We are all going to stand at the pearly gates and we’re going to have to give an account of our lives. We are going to explain what we did, why we did what we did, and it might expose some stuff we had hoped would have stayed hidden. It might reveal some times when we treated someone poorly, or when we spoke - not words of inspiration - but words of destruction to someone else. It might reveal all sorts of things that we wish we never said or did. And of course we look forward to all the positive moments being revealed as well. The times we helped those less fortunate, when we gave of our money, our time, and our possessions to others who we knew needed those resources more than we did. Or the times when we stood up to an injustice that we saw taking place, even when standing up cost us friends. Or the times when we did the right thing, even though no one was looking, no one saw what we were doing, and we didn’t post about it on social media. All of that will be taking place there at those pearly gates. But then, there might be an interesting question posed towards you. You might get asked about the question of how and why it is that you should pass through the gates at all. And this could be a tricky question for you, though it’s not meant as a trick question. When you think about that question, why you should pass through, how it is that you should be one to pass through, where do your thoughts go at first?

Five Minute Friday | Fear Not
Send us a text There is a common thread that runs throughout the Bible. That common thread is a message that we need, more than ever, these days. That common thread is one that seems very counter-cultural in the world we live in right now. And what is that common thread that we need? It is God telling us to Fear Not. As humans, we’re fragile. We get hurt. We get sick. We die. We get cuts, and scrapes, and bruises. We’re not a very physically strong species, especially when compared to others roaming and swimming around on this pale blue dot we call home. Beyond that, we have politicians and leaders who are telling us to be afraid and who benefit personally when we are afraid. They tell us to fear the changing world, to fear funding cuts, to fear funding additions, to fear temperatures getting colder, to fear temperatures getting warmer, to fear the other political party, to fear more and more – and of course they themselves are the ones who have the solutions, if only we would vote for them and give them our hard earned money. And beyond the political and physical, we have insecurities. We have doubts. We have questions. We get worried, and concerned, and upset, and depressed, and anxious. We wonder what other people think about us. Our minds can often be a battlefield of these thoughts. It is to this physical fragility, to this mental and emotional fragility that the common thread is the antidote. Our LORD tells us, over and over, and over again, to Fear Not. God tells us to not be afraid, angels appear and tell people to not be afraid, Jesus tells men and women to not be afraid. Why is this so common? Why does the message of not being afraid run through the pages of the Bible? And how does this apply to our lives today? Is there a point beyond just telling people to fear not?

Five Minute Friday | COVID Exposes Authoritarianism
Send us a text Guys, this week is going to be different. The five-minute Friday segment is always just me, sharing my thoughts on various issues. And today I’m going to talk about something that might be controversial, though it’s not my intention to do so. Rather it’s that the subject itself can be these days. This will be my first episode that directly speaks about something COVID related. I’ve had guests on that have touched on the topic, and I may have mentioned it a time or two, but it has never been the focus of an entire episode. Well, today that changes. Today I’m talking about an aspect of this pandemic that has not gotten enough coverage and needs to be discussed more. And that is how the response to COVID has exposed the authoritarian nature of far too many people. First, yes I think COVID is a very real illness. Individuals and families all over the globe have been dealing with the impact that COVID, the disease has had, even sadly losing many loved ones. COVID is quite real. In our strange social media world, I wanted to make that point right up front. And COVID has also shown that governments and individuals are far too willing to bend to the authoritarian and totalitarian natures, which I honestly did not think were so prevalent here in the United States. I admit that I thought, and expected, the opposite, the desire for freedom, to be true.

Five Minute Friday | Pastors and Sexual Temptation
Send us a text While it didn’t just happen yesterday, I recently learned of mega-pastor, Carl Lentz of Hillsong in New York, getting fired because he had an affair. And it seems this was not a one-night kind of thing, rather than he had some history here. Of course, following that, I read the typical comments about mega-churches, mega-pastors, famous people, money, greed, sin, sex, and all the standard stuff that follows one of these high-profile incidents. It seems that people enjoy piling on when there is a public incident like this, and people enjoy an opportunity to slam the church, any church, and to slam pastors (especially high-profile pastors). It seems that people enjoy seeing them fall. It seems that people enjoy pointing out the perceived hypocrisy that they see in others, and again especially in high-profile pastors. Maybe there is a different way we could be thinking about these situations and how we respond...

Dan Skinner | God, Guns, and the Second Amendment
Send us a text One of the more complex issues in our culture is that of guns, violence, the second amendment, and how all of that is relevant to a Christian living in America. Stories of guns being used to shoot people cross our news feeds far too often. Should a Christian own a gun? Should a pastor own a gun? And what about Jesus being non-violent, how does that relate to owning a weapon? Our guest today tackles these difficult questions and more. Dan Skinner is a pastor, entrepreneur, and a strongman competitor. He has been ministering since 2006, and officially became a pastor in 2010 after graduating from Mount Vernon Nazarene University. Dan's passion for guns became a career in 2012 when he became the sales manager for a defense company. And he now owns his own gun store, Eagle Creek Tactical, in Newton Falls, OH. Dan has lots of love and support from his wife, children, and their Labrador retrievers. Questions Answered: What is the definition of the Second Amendment? What limits did the founders place on weapons, for example could a citizen own a cannon? Could a citizen own a battleship? How did you decide to open a gun store? What is the best way to introduce firearms to children and families? Explain your thoughts of people moving their identity from Christians to Nationalism? How do you use a gun shop as part of your ministry? What do you think of the phrase “gun culture in America”? Should a Christian own a gun if Jesus talked about being non-violent? What is your interpretation of turning the other cheek? What challenges have you heard as a Christian who owns a gun shop? How is gun ownership tied into the suicide rate? Can you share your thoughts on mental health related to gun violence? Is a Christian man allowed to fire a weapon at an attacker? What are your thoughts on how sin is impacting pop culture? Should a pastor carry a weapon in church? How can people use their hobbies for the glory of God?

John Williams | Friends Talking Faith
Send us a text Today’s show is going to be a bit different from some other episodes. I’m sitting down with a friend of mine to talk about faith, Christianity, modern day heresies, and all sorts of topics. It’s the kind of conversation that I hope more of us have with our friends, and I hope you enjoy listening in on this discussion. John Williams is a servant of God who strives daily to pick up his cross and follow Christ; contently serving in an upside-down kingdom. The greatest honor he has is the opportunity to study scripture with his wife, disciple his two sons, and serve his community in the name of Christ. As a former pastor's kid John has had a front row view of different spins on religious doctrine. Having had many faith crises in his time he was confronted with the dreaded questions, "what do I believe... and why?" Starting over from scratch, he began at the first place - the only place - that matters: the text. Since then, he has devoted his time to studying scripture and discipleship, while serving the community. Questions Answered: What is a heresy? Are we experiencing anything truly new in our society these days? What is original sin and how does it lead to heresy today? If I am basically good, what is the impact of the death of Christ? How can self-help potentially lead to heresy? What do you think about churches who skip the challenging parts of the Bible? Jesus talks about both judgment and love; how do we balance those two? Is the Bible just a book written by a bunch of men and not divinely inspired? How do we discern false teachers and false teaching? What are your thoughts of the prosperity gospel? How does a man start reading and studying the Bible? What about Free Will versus Predestination? What happens when a church becomes overly political? What is panentheism and how does it impact people today? What happens when a man daily spends time in scripture?

Ben Killoy | Looking for Home in the Right Place
Send us a text Coming home to a place where you feel safe and secure is something every father longs for. But all too often men are looking for home in the wrong places. When we flip that around and understand what home truly is, and where we need to be looking for home, we can find it in the right places instead. Our guest today went from being bullied as a child, being a chameleon to fit in, and losing himself to becoming a man who has impacted families in a powerful way through his work and he’s here to share great insights with us. Ben Killoy Is a Marine Veteran, speaker, and coach with a focus on helping dads rebuild confidence in who they are. He launched his first podcast Military Veteran Dad in 2019 and his second podcast The Business of Fatherhood in 2021. Ben now helps other dads rebuild their inner confidence and get them excited to walk through the door of their homes. Questions Answered: How do you define home? How do you help someone work through discovering out who they truly are? What does it mean to build our home on a solid foundation? If I don’t feel I am worthy of love, how do I work through that? Is it possible to unconditionally love other people if I don’t unconditionally love myself first? Where do men mistakenly look for home? What’s the difference between prior generations of men and our generation? What happens to a man when he has had adversity removed? As fathers, are we raising kids or are we raising future adults? What is a way that fathers can create adventure for their own children? How did the idea of home come from the work you do with Military Veteran Dad? Where does the feeling of home truly come from?

Mitch London | God's Government
Send us a text Politics today plays a major part in nearly every aspect of our world. As Christian men, we’re called to navigate this world with wisdom and with our eyes on the Kingdom of God. But does that mean that we’re to ignore world politics, or be involved in politics? What does God have to say about government? How are we to live under the authority of a worldly ruler, even if that ruler is evil? Our guest today has amazing insights into these questions, and lots more in this important discussion Mitch London’s journey is a roller coaster ride familiar to many. A smooth start, twists and turns, big drops, places where it feels out of control, times when the speed really picks up, and times when it seems like everything has almost stopped. But like most great rides, he would do it all over again. In Jan of 2019 Mitch received a vision from God to start a Men's Ministry called Just Add Wilderness . God was showing Mitch how men today have lost their Identity in Christ, which has resulted in stagnation, depression, and frustration. Mitch has been guiding men to a deeper understanding of their identity of Christ Jesus and watching them break free from the bondages of life. Helping Men became a mandate, not a market. As a pastor, Mitch really understood the vital need for relationships and connections within the body of Christ. The life on life and heart to heart discipleship that's needed was his passion. Today Mitch is the founder of Spirit Led Coaching where he helps Ministry and Business Leaders partner with the Holy Spirit and learn how to steward the gifts that God has already placed within them. Questions Answered: What does “God’s Government” mean? How does ‘they kingdom come” practically relate to the idea of God’s Government? What are some of the mandates Jesus gave to us? How are Christians to follow the mandate to take ground for the King? Should a Christian man be concerned with Earthly politics? What are the next steps for a man leading his family through these times? Can you explain what authority a man has been given? Is there a conflict between using my authority and choosing to give my burden to Jesus? How are people to act when subjected to an evil ruler? What does it mean to give unto Caesar that which is Caesar’s? Where should a man start on the challenge of politics and God’s government?

Jarrett Samuels | The Power of Church in a Man's Life
Send us a text In the United States there is a big gender divide in church attendance. Women are over 60% and men are under 40% of those attending church. For men, bluntly this is not a great decision. Men need to be challenged by church, and the power of church in a man’s life is unmistakable. Our guest today speaks to how church changes a man, his family, and our entire society. Jarrett Samuels is a husband, father of three, pastor, mentor and creator of the Pursuit of Manliness community and podcast. His passion is to equip and challenge men to raise the standard of what it means to be a man of God. Questions Answered: What is Biblical Manliness? Why do we need more men who are seeking to live a life of Biblical Manliness? What do you say to a man who is struggling an earthly father and God as father? When did you have a wake-up call during your life? How is our growth a lifetime pursuit? Why do you think there is a gender gap in church attendance, and how do we fix it? What are some of the consequences of men not attending church? What happens when people put a pastor up on a pedestal? Do men and women have the same needs from church? How does a man change when he goes to church every week? How do we help a man move from checking the box of attending church to living his life as a conduit of the gospel? What are some of the ways our society changes when more men go to church weekly? If I gather with a couple guys on my own, is that church? What does it mean that the church is the bride of Christ? What is the importance of men reading the Bible on a daily basis?

Howie Close | From Prison to Preaching From the Pulpit
Send us a text Prison can be a hard place, filled with people who have committed some of the worst crimes. As we’ll learn today, prison can also be a place of redemption, where people find God. It’s not an easy conversation to have, and our guest today knows that better than any. He went from being in prison and thinking that he would be there until he died to a free man who now preaches from the pulpit. Howie Close has spent the last eleven years as a pastor at Woodmen Valley Chapel, overseeing the church’s statewide prison ministry. For over twenty years prior to that, he was incarcerated in the same prisons where he now carries the keys. And now he has the privilege of ministering there with his teams. He lives in Colorado with his wife and their daughter. Please note – there are a few moments of background noise and poor connection in this recording. Questions Answered: What’s your story of growing up to finding yourself in prison? How did you find a Bible and learn about God while in an isolation cell? What was it like being so young and being in the toughest and scariest prison in the state? When did you decide to take your fighting spirit and bend it towards the kingdom of God? How did you get out of prison and transition to teaching from the pulpit? How does it feel to freely walk in and out of a building you thought you would be in until you died? What is it like having best friends who have committed some of the worst crimes, but who now follow Jesus? When talking about redemption of someone who has committed such crimes, what about the victims and the families of victims? Can you share another story of a man whose life has been changed through prison ministry? How can we adjust our stereotypes of prisoners? Does the writing of Paul take on a different meaning to men who are in prison? What does it mean for us to live in submission to the truth?

John Williams | The Current Reality of Teen's Mental Health
Send us a text One of the most important issues of our time is the mental health of our kids. The statistics are not encouraging right now, as rates of depression, anxiety, and suicide continue to rise. This is not something that can be ignored or that we can just hope will change on its own. And this is something that we, all of us, need to talk about and be aware of. Our guest today has years of experience in working with kids, working with teens, and creating positive changes in their lives. John Williams wasn’t raised under the best circumstances; he never met his biological father and from a young age he often had to take care of himself. Despite that, he has become an unshakable visionary who sees the world as it could be. He teaches students that they are more than their circumstances, and that they have what it takes to achieve their dreams. He does this by sharing his story and equipping them with the tools to face whatever life may throw at them. This is why he created Life That Counts, a nonprofit with the mission of helping students make better decisions for more healthy outcomes. Questions Answered: What is mental health? What is your story from a child to where you are now? How do we work through the challenge of such an increase in teen suicide? In what ways has the COVID response impacted our kids? How is cyber bullying impacting teens today? Who are the kids that you look to as leaders in the work that you do? How can we help our kids to make better decisions? What are the ways we can begin talking about mental health issues with our own children? Can you explain what you do with Life That Counts?

Tim Douglas | Facing the Storms of Life
Send us a text While our first instinct may be to run in the opposite direction of an oncoming storm, we can learn from the buffalo about going head first into the storm instead.

What is the first step in helping men go into the storm? How can we be more intentional with our thoughts? How does a man who faces the storms impact his family? How do our emotions play a part in our lives? Is it possible to ever control the storm? What is the power in facing the storms with others? How is a man transformed by the storms he faces?

Aaron (Patch) Dean | Addiction, Recovery, and God
Send us a text Recovery from everything is possible with God. Our guest today has an amazing story. Sexual abuse at a young age, living on his own by sixteen, alcohol addiction, drug addiction, war in the middle east, PTSD, arrested and in jail, a construction accident that cost him his eye, an addiction to painkillers, and now a full heart serving and loving other people. Aaron (Patch) Dean has been in recovery since 2010 and is called to the ministry of recovery through his church and through a program called Celebrate Recovery. And within Celebrate Recovery, he is part of a motorcycle group called Broken Chains. Patch is married, and is a father of four. He started a home building business that specifically hires people that others deem unemployable; people who are in recovery, who are felons, or who just need that second chance. Questions Answered: With all you’ve experienced, why are you not a victim? What moment was finally your wake-up call? Why did you say, “Thank you, God.” When you were arrested? What was your journey from jail to recovery? How does trust play a part in someone’s recovery? Where does someone start if they know they need help? How is a Christ-centered recovery program different? What makes this work so rewarding for you? How does being out of alignment with God’s plan take a toll on a man? What’s the power in having other men alongside someone in recovery? Does everyone have a need for a program like Celebrate Recovery? Can you share what Broken Chains is? What do you think about biker stereotypes? How do you help someone who is in denial? When is it too late for someone to begin their recovery?

How do you respond to a man who thinks transparency and vulnerability is weakness? Why is it important that men invest their time, money, and energy in a mastermind group? Why are so many men happy to spend money on hobbies and toys but reluctant to spend money on their own personal development? What does it mean for a man to live life without a mask? How do you explain the disconnect between a man spending so much time at work while saying that what matters most is his family?

Joe Bailey | Walking in the Simplicity of the Gospel
Send us a text The gospel is a mystery to many. Some men make it overly complex, but it doesn’t need to be. The gospel message can be quite simple. Other men find no daily application from the gospel, but that’s missing the point in a big way. In our show today, you’ll hear a great discussion about the gospel, walking in the simplicity of the gospel, and how the gospel message changes our daily walk as Christian men. My guest for this episode is Joe Bailey. Joe is a follower of Jesus, he is married and the father of five kids. He has a BA in Theology from Life Seminary and is the leader of the Paladin Project. He also is a working musician and a two-time IBO World Champion in Recurve and Longbow. He has tons of wisdom and I’m grateful to be sharing this conversation with you. Questions Answered: What is, and what isn’t, the gospel? How should the gospel change how we live our lives? How does a regular guy, with no theology degree, share the gospel? What does it mean that our power is in our story? Can I gain or lose God’s love based on my own performance? What does it mean that the American church isn’t yet spiritually well developed? Is there a neutral ground in a spiritual battle? Where has the gospel message been devalued for men? What is one small step for a man in a dark place to start walking out of that darkness? Do men today know how to suffer well? What’s the difference between a cultural belief and a saving belief?

Jeff Forrester | Putting God First
Send us a text In our busy lives, it can be too easy to forget that we are called to put God first. When we forget this, we can quickly get off track, and we can fall into common traps – like becoming workaholics. But, when we remember to put God first, and once we know who we truly are, we can experience enormous growth in our lives, in our marriages, and in our parenting. Jeff Forrester is the author of Unleashed Potential: Simple Steps to be the Best Version of Yourself , and he currently lives in Florida with his wife Tammy of 15 years, along with their son and daughter. He is a devoted Christian who is focused on helping his family, friends, and others get the most out of their lives. He has been on a path for the last 3 years to building a real relationship with Christ through reading his Bible and surrounding himself with other Christian men. Questions Answered: How does it help a man for him to have a personal mission statement? In what ways does a mission statement practically change a man’s life? What is the meaning of Galatians 2:20 for you? How does putting God first change your life? What is your story of having to step in and lead your family at a young age after your father passed away? How did you make the turnaround from being a workaholic? Why is it important for a man to understand who he is? How does a man knowing his strengths and weaknesses help him as a husband and a father? What is the importance of having your wife as your confidant? What does it mean to raise kids differently from what the world would suggest?

Jeff Hemmer | Biblical Masculinity
Send us a text What is Biblical masculinity? What is a man? Why does the world need men who are following the example Jesus set of Biblical masculinity? These are core questions and core concepts for Christian men to think about and implement in their lives, yet not often clearly talked about. My guest today, Jeff Hammer, author of the book Man Up: The Quest for Masculinity , has direct answers to these important questions and lots more in this great conversation. Jeff Hemmer is the husband of (in his opinion) the most wonderful woman in the world, the father to the five most delightful children he’s ever met, the pastor of Bethany Evangelical Lutheran Church in Fairview Heights, Illinois, a wannabe farmer, maker of some things, fixer of some other things, grower of beards, and general curmudgeon. His big truck is probably a sign of his insecurity. Questions Answered: What is a man? What does it mean to be masculine for the good of others? How does a boy become a man? Who are examples, from the Bible, of men who displayed characteristics of Biblical masculinity? How are we infected with what we have inherited as sons of Adam? What’s different (and what’s the same) about Jesus as a man, when compared to all other men? Why does the world need more men who are trying to follow the example Jesus set of Biblical masculinity? How does sacrifice relate to a masculine man? What force, in and out of the church, is preventing men from following Biblical masculinity? What does the Bible mean when it says that wives are to submit to their husbands? Why are there separate directives to love and to respect given separately to men and women? Is Biblical masculinity an impossible standard for men?

Episode 00 - Welcome to the Significant Man RECHARGE Show
Send us a text Welcome to the Significant Man Recharge show, I’m your host Warren Peterson. This show is designed for Christian men, and my goal is for you to have a great experience listening and learning along the way. On this show you’ll hear discussions about the issues that matter to Christian men. Between my guests and myself, we’ll cover a wide range of subjects, from sex, to faith, to finances, health, scripture, marriage, parenting, and even into things that may be considered hot button issues of our time. Together, we’ve got to keep learning, because even though we live in this world, we're not of this world. We have to learn how to navigate the challenges that the world presents. We have to learn about the important issues of the day, along with going deeper into our individual walks of faith. To share a bit about me, I’m the founder of Significant Man Ministries and I’ve been working with and mentoring men for quite a long time. I lead live immersion events here in the glorious Colorado mountains where I live, and I also lead a weekly mastermind for Christian men. I’ve made lots of mistakes over my life, and I've learned a ton from the guys I’ve had the privilege of working with. I look forward to going on a journey with you over the lifetime of this show, as we learn together. Every week I’ll post a new episode with a guest who is here to share a relevant topic with you. And every now and then I’ll also post an additional episode that's just me sharing my own thoughts with you. This show is a place for you to come to get renewed, refocused, restored, and recharged from the chaos, noise, and busyness of life. So with all that being said, thanks for being here, make sure you subscribe, and let’s get started! To learn more about the Significant Man BASECAMP live events in Colorado, click here .
